The only things I need:- 'Are spares readily available? What is the temperature range and has it a range of flat/chisel tips'? I don't see these?.

There are tons of high quality tips available, check the Hakko web site here: http://www.hakko.com/english/products/hakko_fx888d_tips.html#productNav As for temp range this unit is variable and will answer all your needs. The only units better cost hundreds more. I love my unit which I use for guitar mods from light heat wire solders to high heat soldering to the back of potentiometers. No worries and plenty of options with the Hakko fx-888.

Sorry, I have looked and looked and cannot find someone who offers a replacement blade. I saw one for $900 but that is 4 times the cost of the machine. Someone said you may sharpen the blade yourself. Lay it on a flat surface and use a very fine sand paper wrapped around a solid block of wood. Be very careful with the sanding strokes and you will be able to achieve a sharp cutting edge. I haven't tried that myself but I intend to.

This is an excellent choice for surface mount components. A 1/16 chisel tip works well. From an IPC instructor.

I bought a complete Ryobi tool kit. I am not impressed with some of the tools. The rotary saw and kit batteries are junk and the batteries beganto lose life and power right away and did'nt survive even one year. Get one expensive lithium ion battery and you will be much happier than with your kit battery.

Hi from New Zealand and the question should really be , not what can I do with them but do I really need them for the type of Dremel work I am already doing. I'm a typical Gemini and have loads of fun trying many many craft styles. Best use for these is for glass and bone carving/polishing etc. They would probably be useful for smoothing out any chips in your bakelite projects. I recently drilled some 5mm diam holes in laminated glass and with the odd squirt of water to cool burr and flush away the ground glass they did a mighty good job with little sign of wear even after some 20 holes. My main use is for detailing seaglass trinkets. Good luck in retirement. Barry p.s. I'm not an expert!!!

most anything can be carved with simple or limited number of tools but most people who have been carving for a while usually acumulate a rather large selection of tools over time. I suggest contacting TreelineUSA.com 1-800-598-2743 and asking for their free carving catalog.Sizes and shapes of the various tools are illustrated and they will be happy to give advice. Keep your tools razor sharp and your body protected. Welcome to the world of woodcarving. Have fun. Merry Christmas! Colo.Toad

Mine is exceptionally flat. I am not sure, however, if I would notice the difference between five or ten- thousandths of an inch in a chisel or plane blade. All I can tell you is my DWT 8 inch (all 3) was money well invested. Like the others, you wouldn't see a gap against a dead flat surface.

Ditto what the others have replied. The only thing I can add is that if you bought the riser extension to extend the resaw capacity, you would need a 105" blade. If stock, go with what the others have noted - 92 1/2 to 93 1/2. Another good source for inexpensive blades that cut exceptionally well are Highland Woodworking's Wood Slicer blades. I'm not affiliated, I'm just happy with the performance for the dollar. You can get them online. Lennox carbide blades are also widely available, but are much more expensive. If you resaw a lot of material, especially hard exotics, it may be worth it to use carbide. Ditto what the others have replied.

Easy is relative. I'll just add to others' comments here by stressing how important it is to use the right screwdriver -- a small Phillips, in very good shape. I don't know what number. All 12 base screws have to come out, and three more for the battery. This is not where to cowboy it up with a "good enough" tool. If it's not in good shape, try again tomorrow after a trip to the cheap tool joint of your choice.

WEF: It takes a couple of hours, but it isn't difficult. As I said in an earlier Amazon post, you should search YouTube for posted videos that clearly show the entire extraction and cutter replacement process. You can then decide if this is within your capabilities. You'll need some tools and a couple of wood blocks, but those are shown in the videos. Try "MarkerBuoy DeWalt Planer" and you should go to a few good ones. There is also at least one more YT video 'author' of the replacement process that I found very useful. I am VERY pleased w/both the Amazon price of the cutter and the modification's performance - and - substantial noise reduction. Byrd Shelix is a quality company.

No. It may have got a little warm but that would be the extent. 15 minutes of continuous chiseling might be a little too much for this tool. If you have that much to chisel I would recommend a commercial or industrial type of rotary/hammer drill. It may cost a little more but you will find that it will hold up better. This tool is perfect for light to medium work and not for continuous work.

Don't waste your time if you don't have a diamond bit for a dremel tool. I've got a carwash that does it for $20, and will use them in the future should I get another star.

It can use chisel bits. But this model uses a smaller size than many machines. Depending on what you need to chisel, you might want a bigger unit.

It looks like the T18-D16. Most of the availabe tips are in this style. It is a small chisel. I think the B is a pencil tip.

It comes with six tips; three points, one blade and two chisel. Also, two handels/heating elements. Very nice unit that heats up quickly and tells you what temp it is at.

D., I 'd ask a local store first like Home Depot. I'm no welder or machinist, but you could ask them too. Lastly, try a search on this internet. Good luck.
